First Symptoms

I've read over and over again that chronic irritation from stones in your bladder can cause squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder.. The pain in my bladder has been going on for 4 months.. is that long enough to cause cancer? How are you supposed to know how long it takes? I didn't know this.. I'm freaking out again.

Hey skeetch, actually I didn't suggest your hubbys prostate was inflated, I said it might be a possibility that it's inflamed (prostatitis) or some other kind of inflammation. I just made that guess because the Cysto and ct came back negative and most guys at some point or other get prostatitis which can cause the blood clots. Thanks for the advice.
